Dr. Carrie Leff Launches New Concierge Women’s Primary Care Practice to Serve Midlife Health Needs in Farmington Hills

The practice will offer women integrated menopause care, mental health support, and long-term preventive health

FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dr. Carrie Leff, a board-certified internist and Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, has announced the launch of her new concierge-style women’s primary care practice. The practice began seeing patients on May 4, 2026. The practice cares for women and girls ages 16 and older, with particular depth in midlife and menopause care.

Built in partnership with Monarch, a company that helps physicians offer high-quality, membership-based care models for women’s health, the new practice responds to growing demand among midlife women for integrated, physician-led care that is proactive, continuous, and grounded in long-term partnership.

A Whole-Health Partner for Women in Midlife

Dr. Leff’s model combines comprehensive primary care with focused expertise in menopause, sexual health, breast cancer risk assessment, and long-term prevention. Unlike traditional systems that separate hormonal health from primary care, her practice integrates menopause, mental health, sexual health, and chronic disease management under one physician relationship.

“Women in midlife are dealing with a lot at once. Hormones are shifting. Sleep changes. Mood feels different. Cardiovascular risk evolves, and this is often happening during the busiest time of their lives,” said Dr. Leff. “In most traditional healthcare environments, those concerns get separated. I don’t practice that way. Menopause, mental health, sexual health, and prevention belong in primary care. That is how women receive thoughtful medicine.”

The concierge model allows for longer visits, timely appointments, and direct communication, reducing rushed care and fragmented follow-up.

Primary Care Built for the Realities of Midlife

The annual membership includes:

• Comprehensive Primary Care: A personalized intake and annual wellness exam with up to 12 additional visits per year
• Menopause & Midlife Health: Evidence-based evaluation and management of perimenopause and menopause, including hormonal and non-hormonal treatments, sexual health care, and integrated mental health support
• Prevention & Risk Assessment: Proactive cardiovascular risk assessment, bone health and osteoporosis evaluation, breast cancer risk assessment and survivorship guidance, and body composition analysis
• Chronic Disease Management: Integrated care for conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, thyroid disorders, and other ongoing medical concerns
• Access & Continuity: Same-week appointments for most requests, coordinated specialist referrals, and after-hours virtual urgent care support

A Recognized Voice in Women’s Health

Over the past six years, Dr. Leff has integrated menopause medicine into her primary care practice and is recognized in Southeast Michigan for her expertise in evidence-based menopause care. That expertise is reflected in the experiences of her patients:

“Dr. Leff clearly explains the reasoning behind her recommendations and makes you feel heard and respected. I trust her judgment completely,” said one longtime patient. Another patient shares her experience with Dr. Leff in this short video.

For Dr. Leff, that trust is deeply personal. “Many of the women I care for are people I know from this community,” she said. “They are balancing careers, families, aging parents, and their own health. They do not want to minimize their symptoms or navigate this alone. I built this practice so women have a physician who is steady, accessible, and willing to work through complexity with them. I take their concerns seriously. I stay engaged. That is the care I would want for myself and my family.”

“Dr. Leff represents a new standard in women’s primary care where menopause and midlife health are reintegrated,” said Anna Lohrfink, co-founder and CEO of Monarch. “As a physician deeply embedded in the local community, she brings both clinical authority and long-standing local trust. That combination is rare.”
